To resume the construction of a sustainable world, it is crucial to assess the damage imparted by the pandemic to the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For this purpose, this study is formulated to assess the endurance of SDGs amidst the reverberating wave of impacts that unfolded from the pandemic, and further, to provide a direction in the post-pandemic environment to effectively progress towards the SDGs. A detailed investigation is carried out to examine the drag resulted due to the pandemic impacts in every goal and a quantified impact analysis is performed in terms of the targets of the SDGs. The results indicate that SDG 1 and SDG 8 are the most impacted goal. To dive deep down into the SDGs, the characterization of SDGs from their elemental point of view such as nature of goals, depending on factors, locus of the goal and SDGs interaction is accomplished. Further, a novel parameter, the degree of randomness is proposed whose application in environmental research is immense. The impact on each goal and impact interaction between all the SDGs are also mapped, through which the dynamics of SDG interaction is elaborated. In context with the post-pandemic scenario, the strategies to achieve the SDGs with environmental focus are presented with prioritization factor that helps in the quick revitalization. This prioritization factor is formulated by employing a multi-criteria analysis methodology. To add to it, the fundamental elements of SDGs are built upon one another to frame an optimized and effective approach to achieve the SDGs in the post-pandemic environment. Despite the strategies, a conceptual framework to align the business practices with the SDGs is propounded. This study deep down would provide a unique perspective to the research community and would impart deeper knowledge in connection with sustainability while the solutions framed would steer the policy and decision-makers.
